Star Trek General Discussion

Really enjoyed it.

I saw some light complaining about the Kirk portrayal on reddit, but i agree that it was actually quite good imo. He felt a lot like Kirk, but earlier in the career. Way more like what I expected a young Kirk to be than the 2009 movie Kirk (who, to be fair, had entirely different childhood and life.)

The scene where Scotty was saying "here are our two best options, and they both suck. But we're gonna have to choose one." And then Kirk saying "I'm not choosing either of those" reminded me a lot of Kirk in Wrath of Khan when he talked about how he doesn't believe in a no-win scenario.

TARDIS appeared in this episode. Doctor Who is canon in this universe and you can’t disagree.

I enjoyed it and the portrayal of Kirk I thought was really good.


I thought the human is the enemy could have been better executed, as it stood it was just there to question I guess morality, but that part fell flat for me.


Has anyone felt that they're kind of sidelining Pike a bit this season?

Obviously this series is going to end with Kirk taking command of the Enterprise, so I guess they're starting to set that up now. They also seem to be giving equal screen time to almost every character, which is fine. But yea, I could definitely use some more Pike in these episodes.

I think there's a real push for a Paul Wesley led series after SNW finishes up.
